Welcome Charlotte Deasy!

Parkinson’s Ireland are delighted to announce that we have hired a Parkinson’s Nurse Specialist who will be based in Cork. 

Charlotte Deasy is joining us from the NHS where she was an Advanced Nurse Practitioner.

This Parkinson’s Nurse Specialist service will be available to people with Parkinson’s and their loved ones in all of County Cork.

We are delighted with this development, as there are only a small number of Parkinson’s specialist nurses in the HSE and in Ireland overall. There are also no Parkinson’s nurses available in Cork University Hospital at present. This is the second nurse that we have hired in the past year and the first community-based Parkinson’s nurse role that has been created in Cork. 

The service will be based in Carrigaline Primary Care Centre, Kilnaglery, Carrigaline, Co. Cork.

The service is appointment only. An appointment can be requested by phoning 1800 359 359 or by emailing nurse@parkinsons.ie
